With a Bachelor of Science in Natural Sciences from Bowie State University, my journey in academic research culminated with a position as a Research Assistant at REEU. There, I honed core competencies in RNA analysis, literature reviews, and data collection. My commitment to education extended to assisting in science instruction at GEMS, where I supported high school students' academic growth.At REEU, our team's research on Caridina Nilotica contributed to a patent and offered a novel approach to enhancing aquaculture sustainability. My participation in diverse projects, such as water quality monitoring and genetically modified food research, reflects my dedication to scientific advancement and environmental stewardship. I am eager to bring these diverse experiences to a like-minded team, aiming to make a tangible impact on our world through science and education.
